See G. L. c. 66, § 10A; see also 950 C.M.R. 32.08(1). On August 12, 2025, Ms. Hayes requested “…the complaints I have been receiving regarding [a specified address], in accordance with M.G.L. chapter 40a, section 7: ENFORCEMENT of zoning regulations.” Claiming to not yet have received responsive records, Ms. Hayes petitioned this office and this appeal, SPR25/2538, was opened as a result. Subsequently, I learned that the Town provided Ms. Hayes with a response on August 29, 2025. Where this appeal was opened as a result of the Town’s lack of a written response, I will now consider this administrative appeal closed. Ms. Hayes may appeal the substantive nature of the Town’s response within ninety (90) days. See 950 C.M.R. 32.08(1).
